There have been attempts to ban Winnie the Pooh cartoons in Turkey and other locales, because Piglet is considered an impure animal within the religion of Islam.

Winnie the Pooh has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, the first Disney project featuring Pooh, was also the only major installment of the Pooh franchise in which Piglet is absent. He was intended to be replaced by Gopher, but was introduced in the next featurette due to fans' requests.
